Think about it again, and you'll see the problems of your request.

1) show commit dialog, many files shown as modified/added/...
2) you select some files for a commit
3) commit starts
4) TSVN doesn't know what the status of the committed files is after the
commit (without fetching the status again)
5) the commit dialog is back

--> now, what should TSVN do? Just remove the committed files from the
list? They might not have been committed really, the commit may have
failed, ...
So TSVN would have to fetch the status again to be sure, and that will
take just the time it takes to bring up the commit dialog in the first
place.
